Smoothie King Thanks Hurricane First Responders in Northeast Florida with Free Smoothies on Wednesday, October 12th

WHAT:

To show appreciation and support for the local team of Hurricane Matthew “first responders,” multiple Smoothie King stores along Florida’s northeastern coast will be giving away free smoothies to all police officers, fire fighters, EMTs, medical workers, national guard personnel, utility personnel, and county and city workers.

“First Responder Free Day” will take place all day on Wednesday, October 12th. Fourteen stores in Jacksonville, Daytona Beach, Palm Coast, St. Augustine, and Port Orange will be participating. First responders simply show up in uniform or show their IDs at the store and receive a free 20 oz. smoothie of their choice. One smoothie per person, while supplies last; valid locations listed below.

BACKGROUND:

The Smoothie King franchise is no stranger to Hurricane devastation of this kind. Headquartered in New Orleans, Smoothie King endured Hurricane Katrina 11 years ago and knows how important community support is during this time.
